Sunday Priesthood Meeting 1-31-10 "A-ha" and "Huh?" moments, Doctrine

Brother Swift

  • Unexpectedness causes people to think
  • Answers and discussion need to be relevant to the issue
  • "A-ha" moments happen after "Huh?" moments
  • Ask, how can I get them to ask the questions I want them to ask?
Elder Tagg and Thompson
  • Doctrine 1: Any principle
  • Doctrine 2: The Gospel of Jesus Christ
  • Doctrine 3: Jesus Christ
President Allen
  • Doctrine: 1) Any principle taught, 2) anything related to the gospel, 3) something specific about Jesus Christ
  • The words we use can be ambiguous, it is important for us to define them.
    • Doctrine - Something taught by God through others intended for all people, such as through prophets or scripture
    • Jesus Christ
      • The Savior and Redeemer of the World (more specific)
      • The one who has overcome everything bad in the world (more specific)
      • He lived a perfect life and offered Himself as a sacrifice so we can overcome everything bad. (too long)
      • The Only Begotten Son of God in the flesh  (think, what is it to be the begotten of God?)
    • Mosiah 5: 7 - Begotten of Christ
      • God is the father of our spirits, we become the begotten of Christ as we make covenants and we are changed through the Spirit
    • Born Again - To have a change of heart to follow Christ in faith
